#animation deserves better

[thowawayuntilfurthernotice]

I don’t give a flying fuck if you hate Steven Universe, Venture Bros, Infinity Train, Close Enough, Final Space etc.

The people who worked on those shows don’t deserve to have all their hard work discarded like it was nothing.

They deserve residuals, if that “offends you” then you can kindly go fuck yourself.

Drew this quite a while ago but they’re still judging companies for not treating animation right

Between Inside Job getting cancelled, Pantheon being put on a streaming service that basically no one uses before being taken off that service, and everything involving The Owl House, would it be rude for me to say the 2020s has basically been animation genocide so far?

I mean, seriously, this just reeks of Judge Doom! Sociopathic businessmen killing innocent cartoons for no reason other than corrupt business practices. And just like Judge Doom, they need to be gotten rid of with extreme prejudice.

I’m not really someone who wants to weigh in on what’s been going on with animation, but after the miracle of streaming came to be and Hollywood executives saw what they could do with their franchises and businesses, I realized I couldn’t remain silent any longer. I’ve had it with so many greedy executive producers acquiring film and animation studios that were never theirs to begin with, and shutting down various animation studios for the sake of corporate greed, as well as the cancellation of various projects for stupid bills to “keep their companies afloat”! Enough is enough! They are not only trying to steal our childhoods, but our futures as well as the futures of many children who aspire to become animators(even if the shows they watch are brainrot lol).

As you probably know already, the Animation Guild is holding a “Stand with animation” rally today in Burbank, and I thought to myself why not hold my own rally at my home, although being a thousand miles from where I’m from. So, I did hold my own protest but it was very hot outside so I had to come back inside but while the WGA and IATSE continue to defend for their professions and futures, I thought it would be wise to post some of the posters that I’ve made throughout 2024. I was originally wanting to protest on my own on March, I thought today was the right time to do it.

Notice that the 3rd sign, I made was featuring Kitty Bobo, who I would’ve loved to have gotten a chance to greenlight since it didn’t back in 2001. David Zaslav, I still haven’t not forgiven you for shutting down Cartoon Network Studios and Rooster Teeth for the sake of “money, money, money”, and I’m still mad that you closed down the Cartoon Network website for that aforementioned reason, and on behalf of many kids and NEETs right now who wanted to work there as well as other studios recently shut down unjustly, you will not get away with robots being your prized possessions! Time is up, Zaslav!!

day twoe ah haha

The state of animation in the US right now is absolutely heartbreaking.

So many animators, storyboard artists, and character designers are struggling to find long time work because of all the mergers/cancellations.

And they can’t go on strike until July of next year.

Just, fuck this timeline.
